Definitions
- the invention relates to a measuring device for measuring an industrial process variable at a predetermined maximum power consumption by the measuring device. More specifically concerns the invention a measuring device for connection to a current loop, in particular a 4 - 20 mA current loop, or to a digital communication.
- Means for measuring a process variable are used to measure a process variable to be recorded and the measured values passed on for subsequent processing.
- UP ps
- the measured values can be passed on via a current loop or via a digital communication. In both cases, it is advantageous if the measuring device has its takes the required power from the two lines through which the measured value is passed on becomes.
- the current in the current loop set so that its size reflects the size of the process variable. It has a standard is now in use that uses currents between 4 mA and 20 mA, where a current of 4 mA through the current loop is the maximum (or minimum) measurement value and a current of 20 mA the minimum (or maximum) measured value of the process variable represents.
- This measurement technique proves to be largely insensitive to interference and is widely used experienced in industrial application.
- a measuring device that is supplied by means of a current loop has only a limited one Performance available. This power depends on the supply voltage and the (according to the currently set current). Conventional measuring devices are dimensioned so that they have the minimum available power get along, d. H. only the power available at minimum current and voltage need. If more power is available, this additional power is combined in one Current level converted into power loss and not in the measuring device for improvement used for the measurement.
- Measuring devices that are controlled via digital communication often have one constant power consumption as this is necessary for data transmission.
- the Available power depends on the applied terminal voltage.
- measuring devices are designed so that the measuring circuit maintains a constant Has power consumption that corresponds to the power with a minimum supply voltage. additionally Offered power with a larger supply voltage will also be dissipated here implemented.
- an improvement proposal is known in which an intelligent sensor is equipped with a sensor circuit.
- the sensor is used for a Measurement frequency operated, which corresponds to a power consumption that is greater than that at minimum current and minimum voltage available through the current loop. If this leads to a deficit (i.e. the power consumed exceeds the permissible one available power), then the sensor circuit detects this deficit and causes that the execution of the measurement program is suspended until the deficit no longer exists.
- the object of the invention is to provide a measuring device of the type mentioned at the outset is able to meet their power requirements without the risk of incorrect displays of the measured value adapt the available performance.
- the total output would be the one to be displayed Measured value, consumed by the corresponding frequent function of the sensor.
- Power remains, so there is no performance deficit and therefore no malfunction of the sensor can arise.
- the excess power is dissipated in the measuring device (Heat) implemented.
- Heat the measuring device
- the sum of both services taken must be just as large that the total current absorbed by the sensor corresponds to a defined value. This For the sensor, the value is to be output within a current loop (4 - 20 mA) by the current one Measured value specified.
- the value of the constant recorded corresponds Stroms the general requirements in connection with the used Communication protocol.
- the desired one Adaptation of the power consumed to carry out the measurement task enables the available service without exceeding it by the fact that the current surplus of power that would have to be converted into power loss becomes.
- the control unit of the sensor is in able to take appropriate measures regarding the type and frequency of implementation of the Measuring cycles the power consumption of the measuring device to the predetermined maximum available Approximate performance so that the surplus is minimized without a specific one to fall below the predetermined limit for the surplus. (The excess on this is ideal Limit at least approximately zero.)
- the current surplus can be determined either by measuring the surplus directly Electricity or excess power. But it is also indirect Way possible by measuring current or consumed power for implementation the measurement task and measurement of available performance or knowledge of Available current to determine the current surplus by forming a difference. If you choose the way of indirect surplus determination, you can make a significant simplification achieve with a slight disadvantage that individual measurements of the current or. Performance determination is waived and this through appropriate estimates and compliance larger reserves to be replaced.
- the invention is suitable for any measuring devices for process variables, if these Measuring devices externally a power consumption, usually a varying maximum power consumption is specified. For example, this is the default of Power consumption when using a current loop, because here (with the measured value to be displayed varies) only the maximum amount of power that may be used, corresponds to the current that is used to display the correct measured value in the supply lines can flow.
- the invention is particularly suitable for sensors such as level sensors.
- sensors such as level sensors.
- the invention is described below with reference to two embodiments, which are on the one hand a radar level sensor and on the other hand an ultrasonic level sensor is.
- Such sensors are regularly used today through current loops or digital communications and are therefore those to be overcome according to the invention Exposed to difficulties.
- a preferred implementation of the invention uses a current stage that is generally parallel to the other components of the measuring device.
- the current stage serves to consume the power (“power dissipation") that is left over from the total (given by the measured value display function) the power required deducts the measuring device in measuring mode. This one not used As already stated, the excess power is a measure of the reserve in the system for an increase in the measurement performance is still available without it being in the state of the Technology (EP 0 687 375) specified deficit comes.
- Such a current stage offers various options for measuring the excess power, as will be described below with reference to exemplary embodiments becomes.

- the microcontroller determines from the digital signals a reading. After a possible conversion, he gives this via a control line 16 further to the current stage cf. below, which depending on this sets a current, or to the digital interface, which transmits the measured value via digital communication.
- the control lines 16 and 17 are used as a connection to the digital interface used.

- the microcontroller has a reduced mode Current consumption. Capacitors 111, 112, and 113 reduce the current fluctuations, that arise when the components are switched on and off.
- Figure 2 shows a second exemplary embodiment of a similarly constructed ultrasonic sensor.
- a power supply unit 202 which has supply lines, is used to supply energy to the sensor 201 14 and 15 is connected to a current stage.
- the sensor is controlled by a microcontroller 206, the program of which is in one Program memory 207 is located. It uses an EEPROM 209 and a for its data RAM 208.
- the microcontroller controls the ultrasonic transmitter 203, the control signals for the sound transducer 214 supplies.
- the sound transducer 214 thereby generates sound waves that are emitted and reflected by a reflective medium.
- the received signals converts the sound transducer into electrical signals that are fed to the receiver 204.

- the current that flows into the terminals of the measuring device is divided into a proportion that flows into the supply line 14, and a portion that flows into the current stage 302.
- the Current through the supply line 14 is used by the measuring device for working, the current through the current stage is not used to supply the measuring device, it is a measure of the current performance surplus.
- the microcontroller measures this excess, shown in FIG. 3 as a voltage measurement across a resistor R302, and adjusts the power consumption of the sensor so that it is always sufficient, if the smallest possible excess is available. If the surplus decreases, parts of the Measuring device z. B. the transmission and reception area, or the entire Signal generation and processing area put into a power-saving idle state. It is possible, with a corresponding reduction in the surplus, for a temporary suspension the operation as described in the prior art EP 0 687 375.

- the circuit 1303 consumes just enough current that the voltage drop across the Current stage 1302 is as small as possible to reduce power loss, but large enough remains so that the current stage can keep the current constant, even if the Supply voltages or the current consumption of the sensor occur.
- a measure of that Excess power therefore results from the current through the circuit 1303, the z. B. is measured via the voltage drop at R1302 using the measuring line 20.
- the determination of the excess power becomes more accurate if one also considers the voltage on the supply line + 14 with the measuring line 18.

You get information about the power consumption of these components, one can make a statement about the power consumption of the Make measuring device by z. B. for the unknown power consumption of others Components assumes a worst case value. In addition, the available Performance determines how B. shown in Figures 3 to 6 and from it the excess power certainly. Based on the surplus performance, the Microcontroller whether parts of the measuring device are put into said idle state need to control the power consumption of the measuring device.
- Figure 7 shows as another preferred embodiment of the invention a radar sensor, which with the help of a Measurement line 715 receives a statement about the power consumption of the receiver 704. If the sensor is powered by a current loop or digital communication is irrelevant. In the case of an ultrasonic sensor or a sensor with a cable guided The same procedure can be carried out using radar. The important thing here is just one or more Identify main consumers whose current power requirements are determined.
